Orion S.A.\u00a0(NYSE: OEC), a global specialty chemicals company, announced today it has signed a long-term supply agreement with Contec S.A., which will provide Orion tire pyrolysis oil to produce circular carbon black for tire and rubber goods customers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The agreement with Warsaw, Poland-based Contec further enables Orion to diversify its sources of tire pyrolysis oil, commonly known as TPO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWith the ConPyro\u00ae TPO supplied by Contec, Orion will be able to make large-scale volumes of circular grades of carbon black that will supply growing demand from the world\u2019s leading tire and rubber goods producers,\u201d Orion CEO Corning Painter<\/strong> said. \u201cThis is yet another way that Orion is accelerating the transition to a circular economy.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

TPO-based manufacturing is the only circular technology that is moving into industrial production to produce high-quality active carbon black. The process takes discarded end-of-life tires and exposes them to high temperatures to produce a feedstock Orion can convert into virgin carbon black.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Orion is the only company that has made circular carbon black from 100% TPO as a feedstock. The company has also demonstrated that its circular products can replace virgin carbon black in many applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cAt Contec, sustainability is one of our core values. This partnership is a clear confirmation to the market that the industry is continuously evolving, and the circular economy is no longer just a vision for the future – thanks to collaboration with Orion, it is becoming a tangible reality today,\u201d said Krzysztof Wr\u00f3blewski, CEO of Contec S.A.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
